The United Nations declared 2025 to be the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, celebrating the role of quantum theory in developing our modern technological societies. It celebrates past successes and planning for a future in which people around the world can benefit from these crucial technologies.

DOE Office of Science will support two new areas of growth for Fermilab: high school student apprenticeship to expand the technicians’ teams and lab engineers in the
development of innovative ideas.

The Chicago Quantum Exchange and the FBI’s Chicago office recently hosted leaders from industry, government and academia at Fermilab to build communication channels. The first-of-its-kind symposium between law enforcement and technology developers aims to create a national model for cooperation between the quantum ecosystem and the government agencies to protect the nation and its assets.

Enabled by a U.S. Department of Energy program, a collaboration of scientists from Fermilab, UChicago, NOIRLab and other institutions demonstrated that skipper-CCD detectors can be utilized to improve cosmology research

The international collaboration presented their first results with new data in four years, featuring a new low-energy sample of electron neutrinos and a dataset doubled in size.

Learn what happens to lab equipment that is no longer used and how Fermilab donates instruments to universities to extend equipment usage.

The new state-of-the-art QUIET laboratory will study the performance of qubits isolated from cosmic radiation. Its above ground counterpart is LOUD and together they will enable controlled experiments of quantum sensors.

Congratulations to Anna Grassellino who is among the winners of the women’s Oscar, the Marisa Bellisario Award, dedicated to “Women who make the difference”. She will be awarded the international prize for her the role for leading the SQMS Center at Fermilab.

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory announced Jim Kerby as project director for Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (LBNF/DUNE-US) He will be responsible for managing all aspects of the project in the U.S. as Fermilab leads the execution of the largest international DOE project ever hosted on U.S. soil.
